    Last day of school was cancelled because of tornado damage. Not a great way to start the summer.

    Joining!

    I'm looking for a bit of camaraderie in reaching my fitness goals this summer. 4 years ago I joined MFP and over the next 2 lost 90s pounds. Since then I stopped putting myself first and have regained quite a bit. If anyone wants to partner in a healthier summer, please send a friend request! I'm about 'real' food, self love, and getting better every day.

    Total number of pounds to lose for this Challenge: 15

    Life to date: -41 lb from highest weight ever
